Fundraising Results - final post

It has been almost 3 months since the race. The team has disbanded and is spread across the country/continent busy with our lives - working, adventuring, parenting, learning, teaching, playing...living! The total amount we raised was close to 14K. Most importantly, those funds are going to go directly to supporting 8 special women take part in a Women of Courage program happening at the end of September in Ontario. Without these funds raised, Outward Bound would not have been able to run a second Women of Courage program. Thank You to all of our friends, family and others who supported us through our training, planning, fundraising and throughout the race itself. We couldn't have done it without you, and the Women taking part in the program at the end of September couldn't have taken part in their program without your help. Plans are already under way to register for next year's race - a faster boat, a better finish and more money raised! Stay tuned....
